Dogpalace Dogtraining LLC update!

Nat is taking September off. August has been a busy month and he is still shot after having Rover for so long. We are looking to change length of stay rules, because when you are a small business and only two people it gets insane fast.

We did recieve another influx of dogs for September so that is full unless we get a cancelation, and already booked up parts of October, November and December. We are taking off from Dec 15th through the 31st, I might also sneak in my birthday week because I won't have many days off before then.

We have a couple of spots left for the last 3 months, but if anyone wants us, book now.

Diva has a meet and greet this weekend, wish her luck.
Brody our little fan fav is still doing well.
Rover is doing well at Tabathas and has a group of new friends, he's truly content and didn't miss a beat.
We might have news about Bailey in a month or so.
And we are getting a little Mini aussie in named Nala who Candy Higgins is helping finding a new home. She's good with dogs, nice with strangers, scared of kids.
She's will be here for two weeks of evaluation and rehab.

Photo of said little Mini Aussie just to tempt all of you!

Someone asked me online a while back why I don't post as many training videos.
And truthfully, everyone does, and it would probably give more business.

But why do I often post photos and clips of people's dogs relaxing or doing shenanigans? (Even though this is mostly on my private page, I suck at updating this one, I'll try to improve it)

The reason is because we take pride in your dog relaxing so much they treat our home like their home away from home.

A dog that is having fun is learning better, a dog that is relaxed and trusts me will absorb more of the learning.

And honestly, watching a video of a dog with zoomies who's enjoying life is generally more funny than an obedience video.

But I will try to post more stuff and more information...

Here is a bunch of photos of relaxed dogs...

Two years ago we took in the dog that was all over the news running through the Holland tunnel... showed up that he was a very anxious being, took us two years to get to this but we are very proud of him ❤️

ISO a used cheap/free camper/caravan winterized if possible if not, we will do it. Has to be able to roll, not leak and have functional electricity/heat and functional lock. We don't care about septic/bathroom or water.

Don't have to be the biggest thing at all.
It's to create a house for Rover. Rover is doing ok, but the crate is hard for him. That makes it hard for us to get an appropriate baseline and keep him low stress. He even has little p**p accidents out of anxiety in there.

The one place he relaxes in, is Nats car when it's idling and classical music is playing. We have a camera on him and he lays there and snores.

So to help him we figured a camper would be ideal.

Alternative could also be a mini house but they are harder to come by so I doubt it's something we can afford.

Please share this post so Rover can continue to get the help he needs.
This dog needs help to stabilize further. He has done good progress though despite it all but just not enough and we hope this will help him overcome the last humps.

Thank you in advance!

Wednesday evening September 6th we had to put our old man to rest. 17 years old. He was the protector and patriarch of this house and even with dementia he tried his best to be the goodest boy. Rest in peace Papa, we will see you at the rainbow Bridge. 🌈 ❤️

We are starting a short video series, Behavior for beginners. This is just meant to be small snapshots in having a better understanding for dog nuances.

Enjoy Cosmo showcasing anxious jumping and zoomies.

Cosmo is a rescue German Shepherd in my care, I recently was told how much he loves me because he jumps up when I pet him and zooms around. The person in que...

Soon Bailey will get his outside run set up, in a safe way so he cant run away again. He gets a little Braver every day!! ❤️ please donate to Red Hook Dog Rescue for his continued care. In the months he has been here he has started to play, explore and is making dog friends. Once the pen is up, we are hoping to have playmates. You can also buy things for Bailey and Cosmo on their wishlist.

Bulldog snorefest!
When I see all these abusive trainers doing board and train it breaks my heart. Here is Jelli, he has come to me for training since he was a puppy. He dont need training anymore but his mom prefers that he is somewhere he is comfortable when she travels.

I firmly believe in that a comfortable dog, is a dog that will learn better. How can any puppy or dog learn and hold on to what they learn if they are filled with anxiety or fear?

If your board and train trainer is not open and honest about your dogs emotional state and what they do to mitigate so your companion is as comfortable as possible, or refuse to send photos/videos. Then its time to grab your dog and go!!!

Here, you can pay for a whole room if your dog don't like the crate, we let them on the couch, if they are too stressed we have slept with them or even had them in our bedroom with our dogs when the baby puppy has been too anxious to be alone over night.

Always advocate for your dog, if the trainer cares they will understand ❤️

Thank you for trusting me with this boy! He is the bestest boy!

Going to a shelter today for interview as part time lead trainer to help volunteers and employees on how to evaluate, read and work dogs among other things. Im bringing along my awesome Fig&Tyler treats.
These type of freeze dried treats is often loved even by the most nervous and stressed dog. Being in a shelter is hard for a dog and very stressful. These types of treats also tend to be very stomach friendly as well, meaning that we now dont add belly ache to the dogs stress levels.

Dogtoy Monday, Bodhi is testing out a flirtpole. He loved it, tremendously.. Flirtpole play is something you need to be careful with for multiple reasons but is also a lot of fun.

1. The dog cant be too young, sudden breaks and turns can damage joints severely even on an older dog. Growth plates has to be closed so on average around 1 year to 18 months (smaller dogs plates closes at a younger age, talk to your vet about it.)

2. The dog needs a good out/drop it, they need to be able to catch it every so often to feel satisfaction, otherwise it can lead to frustration issues which can lead to behavioral issues.

3. Shorter sessions at first, warm up and slowly build stamina, make sure to cool the dog off after with a walk to not get a sore dog. Bodhi only did 5 minutes today.

4. This is a very intense game and can lead to obsession on the flirt pole, Bodhi wants to keep going and is whining for it. Too much is not healthy and this was just his first time. This is not meant for every day and high intensity all the time. The more stamina the dog builds the more mental and physical stimulation he/she will require.

5. Dont do this with a leash reactive dog and walk after, the excitement level will get him/her to react harder on another dog, with them do a massage after or puzzle toy in the house. Use flirt pole on off days of walking.

6. This flirtpole is Outward Hound Tail Teaser

My Fig&Tyler package arrived...
Bodhi my long term board and train who is nervous and very picky about new food items volunteered as taste tester. He clearly had a couple of favorites, and 2 items he did enjoy after taking time on him to investigate. The winner was the turkey gizzard and freeze dried rabbit..

Healthy and delicious treats that helps a scared dog to focus and create positive associations with the world are priceless ❤
